Plough, Swindon

26 Devizes Road, Swindon, SN1 4BQ (Directions)
Improve This Listing

A popular Old Town destination taken over by a mother and daughter team in October 2020 giving it a more relaxed feel. The inside is compact and well laid out with a small additional room at the back. There is a small terrace at the rear overlooking what used to be a railway line. There is only one real ale, Arkell's 3Bs.

There is a quiz on Tuesday evenings.

Historic Interest

Opened as a beerhouse before 1844, when it was known as the Quarryman's Arms. Sold to Arkell's as the Plough in 1867. Part of the garden and an adjoining cottage were sold to allow the construction of the adjacent railway line. Full licence granted in 1956. Completely refurbished in the spring of 2013.

Information for this venue is provided by the Swindon & North Wiltshire Branch of CAMRA
